Hi Lee.,
I just checked and yes there is to rebase the series due to
c0e3d2beeb03 ("leds: Drop explicit initialization of struct
i2c_device_id::driver_data to 0")
But I notice that something went bad in reverting some commits from the
v7 series and in for-leds-next there are still 3 commit to drop
mainly
- 3bed6364ffd0057bd10c081d2e24aa7e8555e0a8
- 3bcc6d6ad7821aa459826592f830d76a3dc6f79f
- 5a402b40c651baf758ad884aed36c0ea70cd8b1e
I'm sending v8 with everything rebased but please keep in mind that
those commits needs to be reverted as the leds one also somehow got half
applied (no idea what happen)
